Windy City Gridiron
We’re approaching the midpoint of the NFL season, and the Chicago Bears have a winning record (4-3), just ike they did a year ago.
We all know how last season turned out, but this Bears team has a chance to bounce back from last week’s stinker in Baltimore against the (3-5) Cincinnati Bengals. Chicago should be able to get their passing game on track, as the Bengals are allowing the third most passing yards in the NFL at 256 per game. Then again, the Bears should be able to run the ball because Cincinnati has the worst run defense in the NFL, allowing 152 yards per game.
Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday at 12:00 p.m. (CT) from Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio. The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of 55.
The game will be on CBS again this week, but this time we’ll get Spero Dedes and Adam Archuleta on the call. If you live in the yellow of this 506sports.com map, then you’ll get to see the game.
ESPN Chicago (1000 AM, 100.3 FM HD2) with Jeff Joniak, Tom Thayer, and Jason McKie on the call, and LATINO MIX 93.5 FM (Spanish) with Omar Ramos.
The Bears game can also be heard on SiriusXM.
